I think most people play to win! What can impact is playing pressured by the amount invested, if that's what I probably ABI is not in accordance with your BR.
You can play to win in different ways! You can wait stupidly only for premium hands, or you can play recklessly without thinking about the strength of your hands. In recent years, it is the second tactic that is gaining popularity)))
The idea is always to win, and this game also helps to win much better money prizes, only that it is no longer a hobby but even a profession.
That is why each person seeks to win since every day this game is more competitive.
I think it doesn't matter which game it is about if you play against other people then you want to win unless it is against small children then there is another scenario then you can lose on purpose but in poker normally you don't play against children and the opponents are adult people and everyone has the goal of trying to win if you put too much pressure on yourself or risk your bankroll then it's no longer about fun and if it's no longer about fun then you should perhaps consider quitting
I think everyone plays with the intention of winning, except those who play with play money, few win money, many want to win but don't want to pay the necessary price for it, others can't even with all their dedication, but that's okay, not one sport is for all people only a few will be winners.

I do not think so. On the contrary, I think that my goal to be first and win the tournament makes the game really interesting. I never play with junk, and I always try to wait patiently for strong cards, which is probably why the game is always so interesting to me.
